Ontogeny, secondary metabolism, transcriptome, PiperAbstract
Being sessile organisms, plants have evolved a myriad of molecular mechanisms to cope with the environment's numerous biotic and abiotic challenges. Throughout their different life stages, plants can activate specific metabolic pathways to adapt to the environment, fine-tuning their transcript and metabolic networks to meet the demands of each life stage. The survival of seedlings after germination represents a key step for settling a community in a tropical forest.
